Hi,
Having bureaucrats is not easy, we had a consensus taken by community and
don't have any active bureaucrats on gu.wiki but still the application for
bureaucrats was rejected by meta. It is definitely necessary to have active
local bureaucrat(s), but meta needs to change their rigid requirements for
small but active wikis like ours.
Can anybody canvas for that?
Regards,
Dhaval

Thanks Viswa. Just curious, do Malayalam Wiki
bureaucrats have rights to
remove adminship? Since nobody in Tamil Wiki had the rights, we had to
request some Stewards. IIRC, Jyotis came to our help. Are there other
rights beyond bureaucrats that anyone feels necessary?

Subha,
//In addition to all these points you have added it also brings stability
and openness to the community.//
Yes. Also helps for a smooth transition of admin activities, leadership
across wiki generations.
Viswam,
Thanks for clarifying. I was wondering why the most active Malayam
community had relatively fewer admins.
In Tamil Wikipedia, we have removed the admin status for few users who
were not reachable or had no intent to continue contributing. Otherwise, we
have very few inactive admins who haven't contributed for more than a year.
Considering the size of our community, we feel that going through a step
by step procedure like Auto Patrol, Roll back etc. will be a needless
chore.
Ravi
